This is an Antique American quilt made circa 1890s-1919. It is a variation of the nine patch quilt pattern, often called the four patch in the nine patch. The quilt contains a large amount of rare, antique indigo fabric. For its age, it is in very good condition. It is backed with a muslin cotton. In our opinion, the quilt is very soft, very lightweight with an average drape. The quilt is lofty (puffy) but not heavy or bulky in any way. It is important to note that pieces like this rarely stand the test of time and this is a true piece of wearable folk art.

Please note that all of our jackets are made from antique quilts and the fabric reflects this. Our fabrics are sometimes older than 100 years and we believe that makes them perfectly imperfect. This is what makes them a one-of-a-kind piece of art. All of our garments are pre-washed in a special restoration quilt wash. We recommend spot cleaning if necessary.
